Guest rooms have a wardrobe. Our stay at DAR Pyramids View Inn - Rooftop was truly unforgettable! My sister and I traveled to Egypt with high expectations, and this place exceeded them in every way. From the moment we arrived, the staff welcomed us with such warmth that we immediately felt at home. They treated us like family, always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. The View – Absolutely Breathtaking Nothing could have prepared us for the stunning rooftop terrace. We’ve seen pictures, but standing there in person, watching the Pyramids of Giza right in front of us, was surreal. Every morning, we enjoyed a delicious breakfast while gazing at these ancient wonders, and at night, we watched the light show right from the rooftop. It felt like a dream! Comfort & Cleanliness The rooms were spotless and so comfortable. The beds were soft, and after long days of exploring Cairo and Giza, it was a relief to return to such a cozy space. Our room had a view of the pyramids, which made waking up every morning even more magical. The bathroom was super clean, and everything felt modern and well-maintained. Incredible Hospitality The best part of our stay was the people. The staff and management at DAR Pyramids View Inn are some of the kindest people we’ve ever met. They went out of their way to arrange tours, recommend places to eat, and even help us with transportation. It’s rare to find this level of care and attention in a hotel, and we were truly grateful for it. A Stay We’ll Never Forget Leaving was the hardest part. DAR Pyramids View Inn felt like a home away from home, and we can’t wait to return. If you’re visiting Egypt, don’t think twice—stay here! It’s a place that makes you feel like family while giving you one of the most incredible views in the world. Thank you to everyone at DAR Pyramids View Inn for making our trip so special. We’ll cherish these memories forever!
